MTL - Centennial Family, Rising From Hong Kong Island-Chapter 366
Originally, Dulette had not come out of his anger, but after hearing this, he was suddenly shocked.
"What? Galaxy Group?"
"Galaxy Group on Hong Kong Island? Are they going to buy our Universal Pictures?"
"I can buy Karma, Fake!"
Dulette sat up abruptly from the chair, unable to calm down any longer.
"Damn, how could it be." Dulette's face turned pale immediately, he knew very well how huge the funds of the Galaxy Group were.
Thoros, who was criticized by the entire United States before, is actually the black glove of the Hong Kong Island Group.
All the money he earns is serving the Hong Kong Island consortium.
The real vampires are those Hong Kong Islanders.
Although Dulette hated and envied them very much, he had to admit that these Hong Kong Islanders who had sucked blood were really too rich.
Especially this galaxy group!
The chairman is Su Shaoze!
In the just-released "Fortune" magazine, Su Shaoze successfully reached the position of the world's richest man.
The net worth is a full 32 billion US dollars!
"My God! With 32 billion dollars, I can buy several Universal Pictures!"
Dulette covered his head frantically, and the refreshing mood just after having a good time with the actress disappeared without a trace.
He is very aware of the terrifying cash flow of the Galaxy Group. If it buys the shares of Universal Pictures at any cost, it will not be long before Universal Pictures will change its owner.
After more than a hundred years of development, Universal Pictures, like most established companies, has a fairly dispersed shareholding.
Among them, Dulight is the largest shareholder and is the chairman of Universal Pictures according to the voting decision of the general meeting of shareholders.
But in fact, he owns only 36% of the shares.
Not insurance!
Especially after learning that the Galaxy Group had acquired 30% of the shares, he felt a crisis close to death.
"Quick, mobilize all the funds immediately and start the share repurchase process immediately."
"Oumaiga, is the Galaxy Group preparing for a hostile takeover? Or is it planning to make a big profit and leave?"
"Fake, no matter what the outcome is, it's not a good thing for Universal Pictures and for me."
Five minutes later, Universal began to fight back.
"Put the order out, no matter what price the other party offers, we must be higher than him." Dulette said a little exasperatedly.
Then he immediately called other shareholders to seek their support.
"Hello, Mr. Otto, I need your help."
Dulette said solemnly, Otto is a minority shareholder, occupying 3.2% of Universal Pictures.
In normal times, there is no sense of presence at all, and even the board of directors can't enter, because that would diversify Dulette's power.
But now, it has become Dulette's hope of saving his life.
Otto must not be allowed to sell his 3.2% stake to Galaxy Group.
At least keep him neutral.
Listening to Dulette's words, Mr. Otto on the other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds, and then said in a regretful voice: "I'm sorry, Mr. Dulette, you are one step late."
"As early as three days ago, I sold my shares."
"You know, under the financial crisis, life is not easy for anyone, I need money urgently, and the price they're offering is good."
"what?"
Dulette's face was quite wonderful.
Chapter 629 Let's talk about the price [Seeking flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】
Under the financial crisis, almost everyone and all companies have a very difficult life.
There are countless companies that have gone bankrupt, and in the final analysis, they are still short of money.
Therefore, those people are very willing to sell their shares in exchange for cash to save their real business.
Universal Pictures' shares are just an investment for those shareholders.
They themselves are some companies or their own business.
Therefore, in the choice between a real son and a godson, almost everyone will make the right decision.
Therefore, these days, the shareholding of Universal Pictures has changed very frequently.
Like Otto, a small amount of equity changes did not attract the attention of Universal Pictures at all.
But it never occurred to me, because Dulette's inattentiveness gave the Galaxy Group an opportunity~.
The Galaxy Group had secretly acquired a 30% stake, and there was a hunch that things were more dire than he imagined.
"How many shares were acquired?" Dulette asked eagerly.
The assistant cried and shook his head and said, "There are only 230,000 shares at present."
"What? 230,000 shares?"
Dulette was stunned. 230,000 shares looked like a lot, but compared to the huge size of Universal Pictures, it was only a very small part.
Calculated at about $5 per share, 230,000 shares is more than one million US dollars.
The total assets of the entire Universal Pictures are about four billion US dollars.
25% of the total share capital.
Poor little.
"How could this be?" Dulette said in disbelief.
Under the current form of financial crisis, the life of shareholders is not easy.
Either get stuck or go bankrupt.
Now that Universal Pictures is willing to repurchase shares, those shareholders are not happy to sell their shares.
And the price of his order is two percentage points higher than the current share price of Universal Pictures!
"Maybe investors know that Galaxy Group is going to buy Universal Pictures, and the stock price of Universal Pictures will definitely rise in the future, so they are not in a hurry to sell."
"Or, those shareholders no longer have stocks in their hands, and the scattered shares of Universal Pictures have been secretly gathered."
"Under the financial crisis, the stock market was in chaos, and someone who did this quietly might not be discovered."
Shen Ning, the financial advisor beside Dulette, analyzed the expression.
After Dulette heard it, he became even more depressed. The layout of the Galaxy Group was more profound than he imagined.
"Continue to increase the price, plus 2%!"
Dulet gritted his teeth.
Then continue to take out the phone and contact other shareholders.
This time he's calling a venture capital firm that recently bought an 8% stake from another shareholder and is on the board of Universal Pictures.
It is the target that Dulette must win over!
In terms of Dulette's net worth and the cash flow of Universal Pictures at this time, the possibility of buying this 8% stake is very small, so it is his goal to let him support himself and not sell the shares in his hand to Galaxy Group.
However, when the phone was connected, the first sentence of the other party's CEO made his heart feel half cold.
"I'm sorry, the other party gave too much."
I can't refuse!
From now on!
"You, you you~"
Dulette's face was pale, and he was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
Less than a month after the investment firm bought the stake, it changed hands and sold it.
And the reason is simply because the Galaxy Group is giving too much money.
No way, they are investment companies!
It's all about making money!
Since the price given by Galaxy Group can make them a lot of money, why not sell the shares in their hands?
Of course, this is just what the venture capital said on the surface, but in fact, this is also a vest of Su's holdings.
There are several such vests, and their purpose is to acquire the shares of Universal Pictures respectively.
When the Galaxy Group officially launched the acquisition, it was logical to sell it to the Galaxy Group.
In this way, to avoid prematurely alerting Universal Pictures.
When the Galaxy Group officially takes action, it means that all the layouts have been completed.
It's time to unleash the thunderclap.
Dulette continued to call other shareholders, but the more he kept calling, the more flustered his heart became, and cold sweat was already flowing out.
Once an old friend made it clear that he would stand by him, but some new investment companies made it clear that their purpose was to make money.
Some people even stopped answering the phone.
Time passed slowly, and every minute was a torment for Durrett.
He lost sleep that night, and Dulette didn't want to lose Universal Pictures!
Although he has other industries and his original business, Universal Pictures is still his favorite company.
Just because he likes those big blond babes.
The reason why those women, those beautiful actresses, are willing to squat obediently at their feet is not just because he is a rich man.
More importantly, because of his status as chairman of Universal Pictures.
He was able to use the convenience of this status to give those women more resources.
However, Dulette felt that this kind of life that could control a woman's fate and future at will, was slowly fading away from him.
The next morning, before dawn, Dulette, who had slept for less than two hours, was awakened by the ringing of the phone.
The assistant's voice came from the phone: "Mr. Dulette, something is bad."
"The Galaxy Group just announced that they have acquired a 51% stake in Universal Pictures."
"what?"
Dulette was instantly drowsy, woke up immediately, and sat up from the bed.
The dull eyes were unbelievable, and the phone fell from his hand without knowing it.
The Galaxy Group only announced yesterday that it is preparing to acquire Universal Pictures, with only 30% of the shares in its hands.
But in less than a day, the shares of Galaxy Group have soared to 51%.
Moreover, the stock price of Universal Pictures did not cause much fluctuation, and even the stock market did not have time to react. Those investors are fighting with high spirits, waiting for Dulette and Galaxy Group to compete, and they will make a lot of money!
But I haven't thought about it yet, it hasn't started yet!
It's over!
how did you do that?
"It's over, it's over!"
The Galaxy Group acquired 51% of the shares, which is enough to control Universal Pictures. Although Dulette still holds 36%, his identity is only a shareholder of Universal Pictures.
The Galaxy Group will never tolerate him continuing to sit on the chairman's seat.
He will even be ruthless and use various means to kick him out of Universal Pictures.
In the final analysis, the strength of the Galaxy Group is too strong and the preparations are very sufficient. IV.
